In this episode of Techopia Live, Ottawa Business Journal publisher Michael Curran speaks with Pierre Gratton, the president and CEO of the Mining Association of Canada. Also, Peter Nicholson, president of the Foundation WCPD, talks about a joint event planned with the mining association on Nov. 3 at Hub350 in Kanata. More information about that event here.
